Email threat protection

Fend off attacks with superior email threat protection.

Email threat protection is more important than ever as 91% of hacking attacks today begin with an email-based threat1. Targeted attacks that successfully break into networks of Fortune 500 companies are all over the news. The threat landscape is constantly evolving as hackers develop new and more ingenious ways of gaining unauthorized access to corporate networks.

Because the methods of attack are so varied, email threat protection must include multiple layers of defenses, combating standard threats like malware, viruses and spam as well as targeted email attacks like phishing, spear-phishing or an advanced persistent threat.
